It's been three years since the war ended with a song. As the country tries to recover, a mood of 'forgive and forget' has swept Australia.
Having fought angels and demons alike to keep their memories intact, the self-declared Prophet has resigned themselves to a life of knowing too much in a country that is happy to forget its sins. They've decided to stick close to Lao Yamaguchi, the magical princess responsible for the song, and see what happens in this amnesiac new world.
Until Kez Cooper, the son of an infamous politician, approaches Lao, asking for help escaping Luci(fer).
Through Lao's divine contacts, the Arch-Angel Michael decides to offer Kez the chance to win back his soul by redeeming for his sins. Michael tells Kez he will be given the names of five sinners to help, each one representing a 'step' on his path to redemption.
Although Kez insists nothing he's done is 'that bad', the angels call him 'The Demon Beyond Redemption'. The Angel of Prophecy asks her Prophet to keep close watch on Kez, and the Prophet, alarmed by the idea of what 'beyond redemption' could look like in a post-war Australia, is more than intrigued.
But for some reason, no amount of magic will allow the Prophet to see Kez's past, or what Kez does when he's alone. And with Luci(fer) claiming to be protecting Kez from prophetic powers, the Prophet is certain something sinister is behind Kez's so-called redemption.
Redemption is an urban fantasy about finding a life with trauma. It is the second book in the Silent Trilogy.
